    5 and 6 Digitrax decoders. This Mobile Decoder Manual and all Decoder Instruction Sheets are available at www.digitrax.com. In addition, the first edition of the Digitrax Mobile Decoder Manual is available at www.digitrax. com for pre-Series 4 decoders that are no longer in production.
  • Page 8 Series 5 decoders are capable of hosting Sound Bug add-on sound decoders. Series 6 decoders have optimized LED and lamp lighting algorithms, have improved scaleable speed stabilization (Back EMF), work with Digitrax Power Xtenders to improve performance in the presence of power interruptions and have configurable FX 3 pulse function on all function outputs.

  • Page 9: Decoder Installation

    3.0 Decoder Installation Each Digitrax decoder comes with an instruction sheet that shows you the spe- cifics of how to install it in a locomotive. There are also additional installation application notes and installation videos available at www.digitrax.com/sup- port.

  • Page 10: Choosing The "Right" Decoder

    Decide where the decoder will fit inside the loco. Is there space to put the decoder or will you need to “make room?” Is there a decoder made specifi- cally for the loco? Digitrax offers a variety of decoder sizes, form factors and current ratings to accommodate almost any locomotive. Check the Decoder Selector at www.digitrax.com for a list of recommendations.

  • Page 11: Which Decoder Will Fit

    In many cases for O, S, O-27 & G scale Digitrax 3, 4, or 5 amp decoders will the best choice. If your installation has 2 or more motors, you will need to consider the stall currents for both motors to determine the best decoder to use.

  • Page 12: Decoder Interfaces For Installation

    For installations in small spaces, Z and N scale decoders are rated at 1 amp or more and will work fine in HO scale locomotives. The Digitrax Tech Support Depot at www.digitrax.com/support, has links to application notes and videos for installations in many different locomotives.

See Figure 2 for lamp installa- tion information.

  • Page 16: Decoder Features-Locomotion

    All Digitrax decoders are equipped with two or more function outputs that are used to turn functions on and off and set up special lighting effects called FX 3 .

  • Page 17: Soundfx Decoders

    Functions associated with advanced consists can be controlled, too. Function outputs on Digitrax decoders are available in several current ratings depending on the decoder. These ratings are the total current available for activating and running the devices attached to ALL the function outputs on the decoder.

  • Page 18: Testing Decoders Before Installation

    3.7 Testing Decoders Before Installation Digitrax tests each decoder prior to shipping. That said, we strongly recom- mend testing by the installer before installation. The test procedure shows you how the decoder works and how to hook up the wires. Testing verifies that the decoder is working before you install it in a loco.
  • Page 19 Note: The LT1 can also be used to test LocoNet Cables by plugging in one end of the cable being tested into the LT1 and the other end into your command station or booster. At least one Digitrax throttle or Zephyr all-in-one unit must be plugged in to LocoNet. If all four LEDs light, the cable is good.

  • Page 23: Installing Lighting Effects

    3.11 Installing Power Xtenders Digitrax Power Xtenders are available for most Series 6 decoders. They are designed to keep locomotives running and sound from dropping out in situations where power to the locomotive is interrupted due to dirty, dead or bad track.

  • Page 24: Final Decoder Test

    Digitrax recommends running your command station and boosters at the lowest track voltage possible that provides acceptable operation. The “N” (12V) setting on Digitrax command stations and boosters works well for most HO & N scale layouts. The “HO” setting should be used only for HO and larger scales.

  • Page 25: General Decoder Troubleshooting

    If all else fails, reprogram the decoder’s address and reset CVs to default values by setting CV08 to 08 to reset everything or to 09 to reset every- thing except loadable speed table and sound project selection entries. © 2017 Digitrax, Inc. - 25 - www.digitrax.com...

  • Page 28: Decoder Programming

    5.1 What are Configuration Variables (CVs)? Each Configuration Variable, CV, controls one or more operating character- istics of the decoder based on the CV value that you program. All Digitrax decoders come with default settings from the factory that will run “out of the box.”...

  • Page 29: Dcc Outputs: Programming & Layout Operation

    Another programming option is to use a PR3 Xtra programmer and your com- puter to program and read back decoders. Other DCC compatible programmers are able to program Digitrax decoders as well. Consult the manual for the sys- tem you are using for complete programming instructions.

  • Page 30: Cvs-Configuration Variables

    At first glance, you will see that there are many different CVs. This may seem confusing but, don’t worry, Digitrax decoders are shipped with a set of pre- programmed factory default values that let you get up and running right away.

    Ad2 for two digit addresses and Ad4 for four digit addresses. All other CVs are displayed as numbers on Digitrax throttles. Be sure that CV29 is programmed to a value that enables 2 digit operation. See CV29 below for more information.

  • Page 36: Configuration Register: Cv29

    If your command station sends advanced 28/128 speed step commands, your decoders must be programmed for advanced mode. All Digitrax decoders are 128 speed step capable and we recommend that for best performance you run them in 128 speed step mode. If you are using non-Digitrax decoders that do not support advanced mode and you want to run your command station in advanced mode, you can “status edit”...

  • Page 37: Determining Cv Value To Program Into Cv29

    The easiest way to determine this value is to use our on-line CV calculator at www.digitrax.com/support/cv/. TABLE IV details the CV value for each com- bination of features. Our on-line CV Calculator and the Digitrax Tool Box App for mobile devices make this calculation easy, too. © 2017 Digitrax, Inc.

  • Page 39 Most common values for CV29: All Digitrax decoders are shipped with a factory default value of 006 in CV29. This gives the following characteristics to the decoder: 2 digit address, normal direction of travel is forward, 28/128 speed step operation, analog mode con- version ON, loadable speed table OFF.

    1/10 second per speed step (using the 28 speed step range). This means that it would take 2.8 seconds to decelerate from full speed to stop if you com- manded the loco to go immediately to stop when it was moving at full speed. © 2017 Digitrax, Inc. - 40 - www.digitrax.com...

  • Page 41: Throttle Response Curves & Loadable Speed Tables

    The shape of this curve defines the “feel” of the decoder’s throttle response. With Digitrax FX 3 decoders, when the loadable speed table is active and 128 speed step information is received from the command station, the table is inter- polated to generate 4 in-between steps to give full 128 step resolution.

  • Page 42: Simple 3 Step Speed Table

    “straight-line” throttle response curve is used. The value of 255 represents 100% motor voltage. Digitrax Series 3, 4, 5 & 6 decoders use V-start in 128 speed step mode and run loadable speed tables in 128 speed step mode.

    8.3 High Res 28 Step Loadable Speed Tables CV65-95 For a more precise throttle response curve, Digitrax decoders also have avail- able a 28 step loadable speed table option. With this method, you must program values for up to 32 different CVs as detailed below. This can be time consum- ing but you only have to do it once, since the settings will be remembered by the decoder until you change them.
